Ive downloaded the update above
but before i go ahead i need to finalize one pedantic point
ive noticed that no where on the initial post does it say ipod touch
does this mean that theres a seperate one for iphone and ipod touch?
or can i go ahead and put this update on there
it may be blatantly obvious, but i dont want to risk a thing
thanks mucho

It's not for the Touch. This thread is about the iPhone. Buy the Touch software through iTunes.
So, what you're saying, is that *I* am supposed to be literate and post in the correct thread?
Oh, yeah. You're right.
I don't think there is much of a difference between the two files. I didn't notice any issues yesterday and today after many hours of activation problems my iPhone behaves exactly as yesterday...
Having said that I think everybody should upgrade to the official released firmware.

Does anyone know if this applies to downloading from the iPhone as well?
I downloaded apps prior to 2.0, then installed 2.0 this morning, but didn't have time to actually upload the apps to the iPhone (due to the whole "Accessing iTunes Store" debacle).
If I redownload them from the actual phone, will they still be "free"?
I'm so confused!!!!!!!!!!!!!
right ok, here's my story. I have an iPod touch, with 1.1.4 thingy on it yeah? when i click on update, it says there is a new software version available, but when i click on learn more, it loads up in the itunes store, then returns to the summary page of the iPod. So do you think I should go on Restore and THEN update? Shall i just keep trying to update til im blue in the face? HELP ME!!!!

LOL. Love the paranoia. Today's is snappier than yesterdays. Hilarious. How different do you think the hardware is between the two phones? Not much! It's the same build. I'd love to see a diff of the files on my phone vs. your phones after you've spent all this time re installing the same files on your phone again from the 1,1 package. Have fun! I'm gonna get back to using my phone.
Maybe I'll go reinstall Windows on my PC. I heard Microsoft just released a version that is on a CD that is a different color than it was before.

I don't think that is fair to say it was a botched rollout. Apple didn't roll anything out early. (I don't want to drive a wedge here but . . .) if it weren't for people's impatience, and waiting to download it properly though itunes, there would be not as big a problem (plus the server's probably wouldn't be so overburdened).
haha!
I love it. What is wrong with people that after waiting at least 6 months, they can't wait for the official update to be pushed properly for 1 more day that they used a "leaked" link? Too funny, way to go!

jumping in here - but after getting the iPhone 3G today - is there a newer firmware out already?
Server's back up, currently just clicked on "Check for update" in iTunes, it found the 2.0, d/l'ing now..
This is for the 1st Generation iPhone.. currently running, 1.1.4

Backups
I did install the 2.0 software from yesterday's link. Now I want to install the official 2.0 software. I have one problem.. I can not back up my phone. With the 2.0 version I installed yesterday, it takes hours to back up.. It is still going on... I am on windows XP.
1. Do anyone know where ITunes backups are stored?
2. Do anyone have the same issue?
Thanks

As I understand it, they're associated with your iTunes account, not hardware (you may be able download them to other computers too).
I can't verify this because, well, I'm scared to try with anything paid for
Turning your phone off and on again fixes this. I've had it happen a few times after lots of activity. probably a memory leak. That's what happens when you launch apps developed with Beta software
I also have the iTouch and cannot find where to download/buy the software in itunes. I've looked almost everywhere and can't seem to find it, so I'm probably missing something/not seeing it. Can anyone help me find and install the new iTouch software?
